I love guacamole. I also love salsa, but unfortunately, store-bought tomato products are not so great on this diet, mostly because they usually contain sugar, canola oil, or other forbidden ingredients. So I spice up my guacamole with some cayenne pepper instead. Note: If you do not have all the ingredients listed below, that's totally fine; just use what you have, and it will still taste great. The other day I made guacamole with just avocado, onions, garlic, apple cider vinegar, and a bit of lemon juice, because I did not have the rest of the ingredients handy. So you can pick and choose which of the ingredients you want to put in it. The only necessary one is avocado, obviously.

1 Avocado, squished

Directions:
Chop up all the ingredients as described above, and mix everything in a bowl. Juice the piece of lemon and add the juice to the mixture. Add in the rest of the ingredients listed above (vinegar, coconut oil, spices, etc.) Taste it. Add more lemon juice, xylitol, cayenne pepper, and/or salt until it tastes right to you. Serve with brown rice cakes and enjoy!
Cheater additions: It wouldn't be too terrible to add a few sprinkles of goat cheese on top.
